Job title: Senior specialist

Describe what you do on a day to day basis in your job:
We process all kinds of dividends, reinvestment schemes, interest and redemption payments and coupon claims/securities lending. We inform all our clients in different regions about all mandatory and optional events.

Reasons for taking the course:
To be aware of possible risks through not acting correctly and in a timely manner when operating with the many kinds of corporate action types.  It is important that the surrounding departments, e.g. settlement departments and your dealers, as well as your counterparty, act on these events.

Benefits of taking this course:
Bigger understanding of special issues. Interesting to hear from other organisations and be made aware that in some cases we face the same problems, albeit from a different perspective. I would like a follow up course as there are many other aspects to discuss. We were encouraged to come up with issues before the course, and during the course I found that when I came home and discussed some of the issues in more detail with my colleagues, there were additional areas we would also be interested in discussing.
